Instructions:
- 1Sit on a flat surface, such as a bench or floor, with your knees bent and feet flat on the ground in front of you
- 2Position the resistance band around your thighs, just above your knees
- 3Keeping your feet steady, slowly push your knees outward against the resistance of the band
- 4Pause for a moment when your knees are as wide apart as possible
- 5Slowly return your knees to the starting position
Tips:
- Ensure your back is straight and abdominals engaged throughout
- Try to push your knees out as far as you can to activate the glute and hip muscles optimally
- The closer the band is to your knees, the more challenging the exercise will be
- Perform the movement in a smooth and controlled manner, resisting the pull of the band as you bring your knees together
